Charlotte of Merseburg

* Muted disco music *

Thank you. That's right.

Good night.
* The music gets louder. *

(groaning) Valentin!

(Valentin!

* Loud disco music *

Do you know how loud that is?

Valentin! Valentin! Valentin!

(Valentin!

The victim is called
Valentin von Merseburg.

Charlotte's cousin.

She has found him.

That must be a huge shock
for them.

* Melancholic music *

The best thing
we can do for Charlotte,

is to do our job well
and clear it up quickly.

Cause of death
is probably the shot to the heart.

Do we know what was used to shoot?

Have you
the projectile out yet?

Hmm?

You haven't. Exactly.

We have to remove it first, then
then it will tell us more about the weapon.

Umut, Anastasia.

Leon Landsberg.
Our new forensic pathologist.

What does
the nature of the injury?

That the shot
came from close range.

That the act
was probably not planned,

otherwise he would have
shot from behind.

(Well...
Probably not a suicide.

It could have happened in the heat of the moment.
An argument or something.

We will find out.

When the colleague arrived,
the music was still playing.

The perpetrator surprised Valentin.

Or he turned the music up loud,
to drown out the shot.

According to the status of rigor mortis

death occurred in the last
eight hours.

Maybe his cell phone will help.

(Charlotte.

Mr. and Mrs. von Merseburg.
My heartfelt condolences.

Who owns the property?

My father and Valentin.

Lotte, maybe
let's get some rest first.

With respect, we have just
suffered a great loss.

(Sybille) Could we
answer your questions later?

I have to digest that first.
And so does Lottchen.

Of course.

And?
Well, this is Valentin's girlfriend
of Valentin, Rosa Martinez.

The one next to it is Maxim Seewald,
a buddy. They live here together.

And who is that next to?
I have no idea.

Excuse me?

Konrad and Sadowski
from the homicide squad.

Our heartfelt condolences.

You are the girlfriend?
Yes.

It's all...
I just can't believe it.

And what was your relationship
with Valentin?

We were like brothers.
We had a DJ collective together.

We did everything together.

You lived here together?
Yes, practically like family.

And you?
- Maik Prühne.

DJ too?

Nah, I'm the cook...
from the Merseburgs.

Ms. Sadowski
will take your personal details.

(Yes.

* Ominous music *

Hey! * Honk *
Tell me...

Hey!

Did you want to go in there?

Sorry, I'm in a real hurry.
- And I'm not or what?

I have no idea.

* Cheeky music *

Spinner.

* The music fades out. *

Still sweating from the rush

His body tense
His hands, they shake

Oh, this

This is a mad boy

Here stands a man

With a bullet
In his clenched right hand. ♪

* Dark sounds *

The house of the von Merseburgs
is pretty cool, isn't it?

Have you really never been there?

Charlie never took me with him,
when we were still together.

But yes, it's bigger than I thought.

Hey, um...

She can handle it, can't she?

Yes, of course she can handle it.
Besides, she's not alone.

Hi...
Hey.

What's going on here?

* Cheeky music *

Welcome to Koko Wonderland.

I am allergic to scented candles.
Since when is that allowed?

Since Koko became the best supervisor ever
ever.

Are we a yoga temple here?
* Sneeze *

Are you ill?
Scented candle allergy.

Umut has something against relaxation.
Work it out between yourselves.

It is important to me that everyone
feel equally comfortable.

Because that makes
the work better.

So...

The property belongs to Achim
and Valentin in equal shares.

Charlotte, her parents,
the cook and the housekeeper

live on the first floor.

Valentin, his girlfriend
Rosa Martinez and Maxim Seewald

on the upper floor.

Could be that at the time of the crime
more people were on the premises.

The three of them are quite a
well-known DJ collective in Halle.

Have often celebrated parties there.

In which drugs
were involved.

Yes, they let it rip.

The boys
have really slipped.

Charlotte.

I'm not allowed to help with the investigation, but
I could provide information

and I remain neutral.

Nobody is neutral when it comes to family.
I am.

Valentin wanted my father...
Charlotte!

You must
stay out of the investigation.

Dr. Salomon is back
and is already waiting for you.

Charlie, hey. Hey, stop right there.

Should I come with you?

* He sighs. *

* Knock *
Come in.

Charlotte.

Ms. Konrad does not want to hear
what I want to contribute.

I've been in training long enough now
in training

and I can see my trigger points
very clearly.

Yes, I am emotionally involved,
Valentin was my cousin.

But I am also reflective.

Please.

What do you feel?

To be honest: I don't feel anything.

I am paralyzed.

"Nothing" is also something.

You have one of many possible
reactions to a great loss.

Valentin and I, we...

...have not been so close to us in
no longer so close.

But as children
we were inseparable.

He and his parents
have lived with us.

His mother left the family
then left the family early and...

...two years ago
his father died.

Valentin was like the brother
I never had.

You see, that's exactly what I mean:
My body reacts, but I...

I feel nothing.

Was it the same for you
when Malouf...

Sorry, I don't know,
if you want to talk about it.

The first days after his death

I felt like
like I was in a simulation.

Only when I was informed,

that his murderer is back
is back in a closed psychiatric ward,

came the reality.

And then you have to allow
what comes.

I'm afraid
that it will flood me.

You really let it rip.

The forensic team
also found drug residues.

Yes...

But for me it was always
about the music. Okay?

Music is my life.

I taught Valentin
how to hang up,

Since then, we have been a team.

This year we were supposed to play at a
festival. It went really well.

And financed it all
Valentin von Merseburg?

Yes...

They lived with Valentin and Maxim
in a three-person shared flat.

How did it come about? Didn't you want
be alone with Valentin?

We loved each other.

What does that have to do with the shared flat?

Tell me.

Maxim introduced us.
They had known each other for a while,

We just
hung out together a lot.

And Achim von Merseburg?
Didn't want us to move in there.

He even tried to get Valentin
out of the house. His nephew.

Accused him of all sorts of things.
I mean, how sick is that?

What did you do yesterday?

Uh, I went for a run
and then I went to bed.

Just like that. Despite the loud music.

I didn't
slept next to the boxes.

Yes, good.

That's it for now.
Okay.

Last night.

What happened?

I was in the Little Night.

The bar.

Alone.

Then at some point
went home,

just before the police arrived.

Any witnesses?
Maybe the people from the bar?

Why are you celebrating alone?

Did you have a fight
argue with Valentin?
No.

Just like that. To be alone for a moment.

And Valentin?
What did he do in that time?

Music? As always.

Should I give Maik Prühne a call?

Well, he's still
in the academic quarter of an hour.

Who is that?
I have no idea.

I ran into him earlier
I ran into him earlier.

New lecturer perhaps?

Koko?
Huh?

Looks good, huh?
There he is. Come on.

Mr. Prühne.
Please take a seat.

So you cook
for the Merseburgs.

Yep.
- Also for Valentin and his clique?

I am
only for the older gentlemen

from and to responsible.
But that's enough.

* Spray noises *

Sorry. Hay fever.

Do you know if Valentin
had a fight with anyone?

I have no idea.
He was actually a nice boy,

but quite uncertain.

Used to be alone a lot, then constantly
head over heels in love with Rosa

and also very close with Maxim.

There were always three of them.

Where were you last night?

That's when I went to bed.

I went to bed early that night
to bed early for once.

And you weren't by any chance
in the garden or the boathouse?

Mmh, nope.

Although, yes.
At lunchtime, to get something.

What is it?
My jacket.

I had left it in the garden
when I was out smoking,

but there at lunchtime
I didn't see anyone anyway.

I really have to go now.

Come on then.

* Dark sounds *

Funny guy.

Hi.
- Hi.

Oh,
when I meet you here,

I can also apologize
apologize for this morning.

When you took my parking space
you took my parking space?

I was there a millisecond
before you.

So no excuse.
- It is.

For this,
for not letting you in,

even though you were there later than me.
- Mmm. Sure.

Well. I see you're in a hurry,
I'll leave you to it.

If you want to apologize,
invite me in for a coffee.

Congratulations.

None of them
has a good alibi.

Who has a motive?

Achim von Merseburg,
Charlotte's father.

He wanted to get rid of Valentin.

What about Rosa Martinez?

They were a couple.
What motive could she have?

Something's up with the cook.
He's hiding something.

Just like Mrs. von Merseburg.

First: In the blood of the victim

we were able to
a high dose of cocaine.

Health. Secondly, we can rule out suicide
can be definitively ruled out.

Thirdly: The evaluations
from ballistics are available.

The fatal shot
came from a handgun.

Her father took Charlotte
to go hunting with her.

He has a hunting license.

Call the firearms authority
. They should check...

...which weapons are registered to Achim
von Merseburg are registered.

Fourthly: Where did I end up here?
In a nursery?

In an organic vegan
Fairtrade café?

There are studies about
how a relaxed working atmosphere

increases productivity.

* Amusing music *

Mrs. Konrad? I have to say,
since you've been the boss here,

the atmosphere is
much more relaxed.

Honestly, I feel
somehow more concentrated.

Save yourself the slime.
When it comes to the scented candle...

No, I just have an idea,

how we could possibly get even better
with our concentration.

Namely?
Successful companies
rely on table football.

Can I perhaps
bring one with you?
Yes.

(quietly) Yes! Awesome.

To Achim of Merseburg

three rifles and one handgun are
are registered.
Oh!

Get your jackets, the weapons
Let's take a look at them. Good, Bruno.

Let's keep this short,

I have to
take care of my family.
Good.

Last night, what were you
did you do?
Working.

Presumably
there are no witnesses?

Witnesses? No, Mrs. Konrad, I did not
I did not call anyone as a witness,

to inspect my work.
Is this how you work?

Let's move on
to your relationship with Valentin.

Is it true that you wanted to sue your nephew
from the premises?

I was worried
about my nephew.

He has surrounded himself
surrounded himself with the wrong people.

These constant parties

represented an extraordinary
burden for the property.

I was concerned about Valentin's mental
health. He needed help.

Excuse me, what are you doing?
- We're confiscating your weapons.

On what basis?

That the murder weapon could be there.

Yes, there you go.

We're done here, aren't we?
- One last question:

Who has access
to your gun cabinet?

Please. I have been a professional
20 years as a professional hunter.

And I ask you
to answer the question.

Only I have access to it.

Good.

Then we would like to
speak to your wife.

Please.

* Mysterious music *

Mrs. von Merseburg?

Are you now in a position to
answer a few questions?

It's so awful. If I can
can help in any way, I would be happy to.

What did you do last night?

I was waiting for Lotte,
she was out late.

I fell asleep
fell asleep in front of the TV,

but then quickly to bed.

You didn't notice the music
did you not notice anything?

No.

Since Valentin's ominous friends
have moved in here,

I sleep with earplugs.

What was your relationship
with your nephew?

Unfortunately practically
no longer available.

Valentin has turned his back on us.

Since the death of his father
he had changed a lot.

And how did you
and your husband react to this?

In every family
there are arguments,

but we do our best.

I know
how it can affect strangers.

But it is also not an easy lot,
the responsibility for the reputation

of an entire
noble family.

That sounds far-fetched, I know that.

We didn't choose this.

Good.

So far then
First of all, thank you very much.

With pleasure.

* Ominous-melancholic music *

Charlie.

That's such a pointless question.

"Who has access to the gun cabinet?"

Only my father,
everything runs by the book.

Or do you think he doesn't
meticulous about his weapons?

And here: "Achim von Merseburg
sues Valentin." Wrong.

It's the other way around.
I wanted to explain that to you yesterday.

Valentin has sued us.

Better go now.

And then you just send
someone to our house,

who confiscates
confiscated my father's weapons.

As if he had anything
to do with the murder.

That's crazy!

You know we had to.

I think some things
you just don't understand,

because our world
is so different from yours.

Charlie, you're biased.

* She moans. *
I can't hear it anymore.

You should be on my side.

Charlotte?

What are you doing here?

I just wanted to get my planner.

I know,
You're investigating in all directions.

But stop it,
suspecting my father.

For him
I'd put my hand in the fire for him.

Not for your mother?

Yes, it is.

Of course.

(I had to send Charlotte
home first.

I'm a little worried.

What is your impression?

(Well,
she has a trial ahead of her.

How are you doing?

Oh, I can manage.

You wanted to talk to me
about the case?

Yeah, um... Yes, I'm still looking
for a motif

for the murder
of Valentin von Merseburg.

I can't get these two worlds
together somehow.

On the one hand, the nobility,

on the other hand
this weird techno scene.

When Valentin's father died,

then the bond
with the rest of the family.

It seems as if he had
looking for support in these parties,

for a new family.

And therefore also the particularly
close relationship with his girlfriend

and his best friend.

* Cell phone vibrates. *

Konrad?

Yes, thank you, I'm coming.
I have to go.

The cell phone evaluation
from Valentin is here.

* Dynamic-mysterious music *

Achim von Merseburg sent this
sent to Valentin.

When was that?

Shortly before the time of death.

Okay, Rosa cheats on Valentin
with his best friend.

But if it was
was a murder out of jealousy,

Why is Valentin dead
and not Maxim?

And why did Mr. von Merseburg
Valentin the video?

With this he
quite a bit of fuel on the fire.

Good, or Rosa killed him,

to live with Maxim in the manor
or something.

So I don't think
that they'll be allowed to stay there.

The von Merseburgs
would certainly not allow it.

Poor Charlotte.

Who knows what other secrets
other secrets in the family.

* "Bad Dream" by Cannons *

Did you see me, did you know?

I was standing in the back row

With the lights down low

I couldn't think of the right words

Now it's just too late

Now you're somebody's baby

So I'll be on my way

I've been living in a bad dream. ♪

* The music continues muted. *

(Achim, muffled) He's gone,
Sybille, it's no good now.

What if she finds out?

That would be worse,
than getting rid of a few things.

They confiscated my weapons.
It's only a matter of time,

until they
turn everything upside down here.

No, I can't do that.

Sybille,
I'm trying to protect us.

Please let me
sleep on it one more night, will you?

(upset)
What if she finds out?

She won't.
She won't find out.

* Dark sounds *

We already know,

whether one of the confiscated weapons
is the murder weapon?

Nope, the weapons
are still being evaluated.

What we know:

Valentin has found out that
Rosa cheated on him with Maxim,

because Achim von Merseburg
sent him a video of the evidence,

which is completely sick.
Guys, this clacking is annoying!

All three have a motif.

Rosa, Maxim
and Achim von Merseburg.

And Sybille von Merseburg,
so four.

But Achim von Merseburg was the only
the only one with access to weapons.

Achim von Merseburg is
the only one with a gun ownership card.

The gun cabinet
can still be accessible.

Health.

What is this? We are talking here.

Yes, and you're annoying.
I can't concentrate.

* Koko clears her throat. *

Ms. Konrad, they're annoying.

I am not your kindergarten teacher.

But I can still help you.

Because we have to go now. We
have a search warrant.

* Cell phone vibrates. *

Oh...

Charlotte.

Uh, take it easy.

* Suspenseful, mysterious music *

Yes, we're on our way to you anyway.
on our way to you right now.

(Achim) We are in the midst of mourning

and you organize this frippery
and rumble through the house.

That is unspeakable.

That's our job.
Charlotte, are you all right?

Yes, but I have to show you
show you something upstairs.

I need my mother for that,
because she has the key.

Good. Please follow us,
Mrs. von Merseburg?

(You stay here for the time being.

I'll be right there.
Mmm.

Please give me the spray.
Which spray?

I really don't have
really don't have a head for games right now.

This is a house search.

I can also ask another officer
to take it off your hands.

Thank you.

Please test once quickly
for narcotics.

Will be done.

There's evidence in there.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You're hiding something related to the case.
has to do with the case. In there.

Mrs. von Merseburg,
please open the suitcase.

It is about
about solving the murder case.

No, there are private things in there.

If you do not cooperate,
I'll have to ask an officer,

to break open the suitcase.
I'd like to spare you that.

* Exciting music *

Mom, what is that?

We bought this for Valentin.

But this is all unused.

Excuse me. Mrs. Konrad?
Yes?
Could you be a minute?

Please excuse me.

Mom, tell me the truth.

What is all this? What's going on here?

I need to rest.
My migraine.

The gun cabinet
was not broken into.

Is that why you
out of there because of that?

Have you seen the officers
who confiscated the weapons,

asked,
where the key was deposited?

We should send a drug-sniffing dog
on the premises.

Now please explain.

I had the nasal spray
by the cook,

had a funny feeling.

And indeed, an offense
against paragraph 29 BtMG, cocaine.

And you think that there is
more on the site?

Yep.
It's worth a try.

* Driving, dynamic music *

So you sell narcotics.
- No.

But we found a large amount of cocaine
amount of cocaine in your car.

Never seen.
- Mmm.

Very easy to check,
by taking your fingerprints

with those on the packaging
on the packaging.

I would testify if I were you.

We are not only investigating
in an offense

against the Narcotics Act,
but for murder.

You are a suspect.

You get life in prison for murder.

I bet,
we find your DNA at the crime scene.

Fuck, I didn't kill him.

I only sell to the techno kids.

Did Mr. von Merseburg know about this?

From the drugs?

I don't know, but that
Valentin and Maxim crash,

That was clear to him.

He was just waiting,
for something like this to happen.

I think he wanted
Valentin to shoot himself into the ground.

Fuck. Could be,
that it was Mr. von Merseburg.

There was his gun.

Wait a minute.
You saw the murder weapon?

Valentin owed me money.
6000.

So I went to see him that evening.

Valentin? Boy, where's my money?

* Techno music in the background *

So you were at the crime scene?

What will happen to me now?

That will be decided by the court.

* A drink is poured. *

(Thank you.

Can you explain the suitcase to me?

With all the children's things?

Honey, I told you,
these are all old toys.

Which are all unused
and which I do not know.

Because then we just
no longer needed them.

Dad, what did you say?

Oh, Lotte-Maus.

You worry
far too many thoughts.

That gives wrinkles.

* Melancholic music *

You're lying to me.

Both of them.

The projectile
could be analyzed.

And indeed: It comes
from the seized revolver

by Achim von Merseburg.

Then Achim von Merseburg
killed his own nephew?

Now you are
a little premature.

Were fingerprints
found on the murder weapon?

No, it was completely cleaned.
Presumably by the perpetrator.

But here comes the surprise:

On this side of the gun cabinet

there are fingerprints
of two people.

Achim von Merseburg...

...and Valentin.

Valentin?

Not Rosa, not Maxim?

Valentin.

* Exciting music *

But...
Then Charlotte's father is the culprit.

Would he really do that?

Killing his own nephew just to
have the house to himself?

You sent this video to
to Valentin on the night of the crime.

They knew that he loved Rosa.

So you also knew
how he would react.

They wanted it to escalate.

That Valentin kicks Maxim out.

Apparently your nephew knew,

where the key
to your gun cabinet.

And we have good access to it

in your desk drawer
found.

At the scene
A revolver was seen.

And a short time later
disappeared again.

Did you take the weapon
on your person?

Lord of Merseburg.

They are suspected of murder.

The murder weapon
is registered in your name.

I'm sure you didn't think
that a murder would happen.

A small argument,
maybe a fight.

But then...

Very well.

I just reacted.

I took the gun,

cleaned them
and put them back in the cupboard.

Valentin was already dead.
It was obvious.

There was nothing more I could do.

You should have called the police.

Instead
you kept everything from us.

So that it doesn't come to light that you
that you masterminded the whole thing.

I have to protect the reputation
of my family.

You bear responsibility
for the death of your nephew.

But I didn't pull the trigger.

That was either Rosa...

...or Maxim.

* Ominous sounds *

We have seen the video.

* He sobs. *

The affair with Rosa was just an affair.

Okay.

Now then
in order, yes?

How was I supposed to know that
that sick asshole was filming us?

Who shot Valentin?
You or Rosa?

Rosa has nothing to do with it.

I have...

* Techno music *

Maxim!

What's wrong with you?
Why do you have a gun, dude?

Are you on it or what?

What's wrong with me?
Are you kidding me?

How could you do that?

With my girlfriend!

I don't know what you mean, man.

That's what I mean!

Brother,
I'm really sorry, okay?

We kissed once,
nothing more, I swear to you.

You are so wrong.

You're only here
because of my money!

And because of Rosa.

You are not my brother.

Not even my friend.

* Shot *

* He sobs. *

I didn't want that.

It was an accident.

* He sobs. *

* Melancholic music *

We still have
a little something for you.

(surprised) Thank you.

Now that's sweet. "Best Boss.

You are the best successor
for Mr. Malouf.

I've come at just the right time.

Why are you here? Who are you?

Torsten Kaiser.

Your new boss.

One, two, three, four. Nice.
All the interns together in a minute.

Madeleine Konrad.
Interim Head.

That should actually
be a compliment.

Mh?

Thank you for the flowers.

Uh, speaking of flowers. Really beautiful here.

So cozy.
* Cell phone vibrates. *

Everything flies out.
Too distracting.

But I'm looking forward
to the collaboration.

Lotte, wait a minute.

I can't believe
what you've done.

You have
provoked the escalation.

Valentin is dead because of you.

And I was so naive
and believed you.

Please don't exaggerate.
I'm moving out.

I've rented a room
on the campus.

How do you imagine that?

How are you going to pay for your lifestyle
on this salary?

Honey, please.

Stay with us.

We can talk about anything.

About what? Your lies?

What else are you hiding from me?

Oh, Lotte.

You are making a mistake.

It's high time
that I make mistakes.

And besides, my name is Charlotte.
